PTTTsBURG, Aug. To-day origin
ated what, from present indications,
viii be the most serious misunderstand-
ing that has arisen for years between
the amalgamated association of steel
workers and manufacturers. Already
a number of mills in Mahoning valley
have been closed down and nearly
6, 600 iron workers are out of employ
ment, while the Indications are that
before many days there will be q still
larger number of mills idle. The
trouble is caused by an attempt on the
part OF the amalgamated association to
enforce an old law in their constitution
which provides that no man shall hold
two jobs at mill. at the recent con-
Vention of iron workers a resolution
was passed stigmatiZing the holder of
two Jobs as "black Sheep" and it was
decided to enforce the law after Au-
gust 1st. Members Of the association
we're notified of the action taken and
as rule gave up their extra jobs, but
the trouble arose over nOn-members,
who refused, at the mills of Painter s.
Sons, in this city, Brown, Bunnell s.
Co., Mah0ning Valley Iron Co., Cart
wright, McCurdy g. Co., Youngstown,
Ohio, mill, where the. owners refused
to discharge the men, and the mills
closed down this morning. The same
trouble is expected at the Colon Iron
works in this city and at the iron works
at Akron, Ohio, and Girard, Pennsyl-
vania. The manufacturers refuse to
recognize the law, on the ground that
it was not included in the agreement or
scale of wages they signed. Both sides
are determined to maintain the stand
taken, and unless an amicabie settle
ment is reached soon several thousand
more mill workers may be out of en-
ploYment.

LONDON, Aug. 3.-The immense in
crease in the Gladstonian vote has
caused panic among the unionists.
When the result of the election of Sir
George Trevelyn from Glasgow became
known in the house the members de-
serted the benches and flocked to the
Hobbies, where they earnestly discussed
the political outlook. The home rulers
were iubilant. The ministerialists ad-
NIT that modification of the govern
ment's Irish policy is probable under
this conclusive proof of the spread of
Gladstonianism. The section of the
conservative party, which was pressing
the cabinet to proclaim the National
league, was on the verge of success, but
it is thought the efforts of these con-
servatives will now be Intellectual, and
that all efforts of the government to
ward coercion will be relaxed. Sir
George Trevelyn, in a speech last even
ing, said that his victory made it next
to impossible for the government to
proclaim the Irish National league.
The election, he declared, largely set
tied the Irish question. Hencoforth
Ireland must be treated in a spirit OF
Cancellation, kindness and confidence

LITTLE Rock, Ark, Aug. 3.-An In
dian territory special says later returns
from the election for chief of the Cher
okees indicate that Mayes has been
chosen over Bunch by q small MAORI
ty. Joel 3. Msyes, the newly elected
chief, is one-quaTter Cherokee, and be-
longs to an nlustrious family. He was
chief justice of the supreme court of
the Cherokee nation for term of years
and is an able man. Samuel Smith.
who was elected assistant chief, is a
full bIooded Cherokee. The triumph
of Mayes win completely change the
political situation In the Cherokee
country. Bushyhead and Bunch have
held the office for years, and have
shaped the policy OF the Cherokee ma
ton regardless Of the wishes of the
masses. The official machinery was
under their control, and their defeat
Is regarded almost as miraculous.
Mayes is liberal and progressive and is
pledged to reform. He Is chosen for q
four-year term. The friends of Bunch
still claim his election.

Female strikers.

FULTON, Mo-, Aug. 2.-Yesterday
morning the lady attendants at the
state lunatic asylum struck and sent for
the board of managers. Mrs. E. J. Wig
CLINTON, spokesman. for the strikers.
said that fifteen female attendants had
quit the employment of the asylum be-
cause of an order of the superintendent
requiring them to keep lights burning
in the hall until O'Clock, and to re-
main with the patients in the yard un-
til 10 O'Clock at night. This order re-
quired all to remain at work until
o'clock, and it was impossible for them
to go to work again at S. This change
in customs made the patients so unruly
that the work of the attendants was
doubly severe, and ins6ead of having
their evenings free to attend church as
usual, the hardest part of the day
came after the usual working hours.
Many of the attendants have been in
the states employ for ten or twelve
years. 1t is reported that the male at
tendants refused to obey the order and
locked up the patients and turned out
the lights at 0 O'Clock, as usual.
